John Deere Classic 2021: Complete Breakdown of the Prize Money From Winner to Last-Place

The PGA Tour is currently underway at Silvis, Illinois, for the John Deere Classic. The tournament is making a comeback to the PGA Tour after a year. John Deere Classic was suspended last year due to Covid-19. The TPC Deere Run is the host of the tournament, but this year the field is deprived of star players as most of the top-ranked golfers are playing at the Scottish Open or preparing for the British Open.

The field is led by Kevin Na, Sungjae Im, and Steve Stricker. So this provides an opportunity for plenty of other pros to make a move in the FedExCup rankings. Moreover, there is a decent prize money purse for this event. So here’s everything you need to know about the prize money and winner’s payout for the 2021 John Deere Classic.

The total prize money for the 2021 John Deere Classic is $6.2 million. And it is the standard 18% payout according to the PGA Tour prize money distribution chart. All the players in the field are fighting to get the highest share from the total purse of $6.2million. The players who make the cut will get their share from the total purse based on their rank.
